I'm releasing Saera version 2.3 for SFOS only now, to hopefully be followed by the Maemo and Harmattan releases in the next few weeks. What's new here:
The
updated navigation engine
has finally arrived! This includes fixes such as looking at position relative to the path instead of going waypoint-to-waypoint for improved accuracy and less chance of losing the route.
When Saera is speaking, any music playing is paused so that information can be clearly heard.
Added a Settings page. This allows you to enable online voice recognition, which is disabled by default for privacy, but which when enabled improves recognition accuracy and vocabulary.
Fixed display issues on high pixel density screens (Jolla C, OnePlus X, etc)
Added support for flite (which is a separate package, because it's big)
Fixed a lot of other miscellaneous bugs
A few things that I started working on did
not
make it into this release, as they are not finished yet and I wanted to get this released before the coding competition was over. These include more settings on the settings page, reading out text messages and possibly dictation. I expect to release those sometime soon though.
